Holy crap this was a great season!
The weaknesses of the other shows, like Luke Cage or Iron Fist never seems to infect Daredevil. There was never a point where I was like “ughhh, just end this season already.” Nor did it feel rushed at all. Seriously Netflix/Marvel, please rethink this cancellation stupidity.
There will be spoilers from here on out…
I loved the way they introduced Bullseye and gave him a backstory that actually fits with the show. Yeah, he is a ridiculous character, such good aim that he can ricochet bullets and never misses anything. But the show does not make that the focus, instead focusing on the character himself. Watching Agent Dex’s descent into madness was probably my favorite thing this season.
The Kingpin story was also really cool. The way he manipulated everyone and everything was impressive. I was a little sad when Agent Nadeem died. I really wanted him to make it out of all of the trouble and end up being a good dad.
The end fight between Daredevil, Bullseye, and Kingpin was pretty good. I liked how DD was not nearly as skilled as he was in The Defenders or season two. It makes sense that he would have troubles after having a building collapse on top of him.
Pretty much every aspect of the season was great. The Karen and Foggy stories were very good. I love seeing Foggy as this badass attorney and I loved the ending even more with him and Matt coming back together.
Matt’s eulogy was cool, especially when he started talking about fear and then was like “I am a man without fear.” For those that do not know, that is Daredevil’s tagline in the comics.
I guess now I should probably watch season two of Iron Fist…
This was my favorite television of the year.
